thats a rumour alright ya can still drive down the point.
did ya get anyting in drumanoo?

Its difficult to explain.
ya gotta go over the shore road in killybegs past the round about by the fish factories, theres a sign for roshine. ya gotta follow that rd untill then very end untill ya reach a house at the end, you should be alright parking there, you will see all the headland with plenty of places to fish ( its a bit of a walk though). you are better asking for directions at the tourist office

They will be able to help ya its hard to explain on here.
Hope this helps, let me know how ya do.
Good fishing

drumanoo is hard to explain to get to.
Go to the tourist office in killybegs http://maps.google.ie/maps?hl=en&biw=12 ... a=N&tab=il

they should sort you out. when you reach the end of the road for drumanoo theres a house there, ya should be able to park there fine. its about 15 or 20 min work to the shore. There is a lot of different place to try once there which isnt a bad thing so you can chop and change.
Hope this helps.
Let me know how you do.
Safe fishing
